Geoff Aleva of Civil Consultants presented an updated concept plan to develop a 10.73‑acre parcel at 7 and 15 Adams Drive into a residential complex of 17 dwelling units. The presentation covered a proposed private road design, four lots, existing cabins, area of disturbance, water and sewer utilities and a proposed common water access.

Town Planner Max Zakian noted a Department of Transportation grant for a future multi‑use path near the site.
